		<description><![CDATA[Proverbs can teach us to use our words to produce the effects God desires]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>The spirit of a man will sustain his infirmity; but a wounded spirit who can bear?&#8230;Words satisfy the soul as food satisfies the stomach; the right words… bring satisfaction …for the tongue can…nourish life. (Proverbs <a href= "http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2018:14&#038;version=KJV">18:14</a> &#038; <a href= "http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2018:20-21&#038;version=NLT">20-21</a>, KJV/NLT)</em></p>
<p>It has been said that if a person repeats an action or a task 21 days in a row, it will become a habit.  One of the habits we so desperately need in Pentecostal Tabernacle is the habit of reading God’s Word on a daily basis. And <a href= "http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Joshua%201:8&#038;version=NLT">Joshua 1:8</a> informs us that reading God’s Word daily is tied to our success in this life.</p>
<p>With this in mind, I want to challenge our entire congregation to join me on a Bible reading program.  I’ve been reading one chapter a day from the book of Proverbs. Why?  Because, first of all, it is a book full of wisdom, which is the most important thing a person can get (<a href= "http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%204:7&#038;version=NLT">Proverbs 4:7</a>).  Secondly, the word “Proverbs” means “for or on behalf of words.” Words are so important that they can literally shape a person’s destiny and strengthen their life.</p>
<p>The book of Proverbs can teach us how to use our words judiciously in order to produce the effect God desires in the lives of those whom receive of our words.  Thus, <b><u>I challenge you to join me in reading one chapter per day in the Book of Proverbs</b></u>. With today’s date being October 18th, you can start today by reading <a href = "http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=proverbs%2018&#038;version=NLT">Proverbs Chapter 18</a>.  I believe that by November 7th you will experience the benefits and satisfaction that can only come from God’s words of wisdom. I invite you to join me, and I can hardly wait to see the results!</p>
